3 pounds and counting....
Last night, while Jason was at the hospital with Tucker, they did their regular "hands on" time and weighed him. He is now at 3 pounds!! We also got some good news that when he gets to eating 27 mL they will then take out his pick line! Right now he is eating 12 1/2 mL, and it goes up 1 1/2 mL every 12 hours, so it will be a few days. He is also down to the lowest setting on his vapotherm and will soon be on a regular nasal cannula that we would use if we needed to have oxygen. He will no longer need the humidity that runs through it!
Paige loves visiting her baby brother and talks to him alot and lets him know he's ok! :) She loves to think that Tucker is dreaming of her and that he talks to her.
Little by little he is losing more and more wires that bind him to his isolet! We are so thankful for God's provision! He is keeping Tucker tight in His arms and getting him through this! We can't believe we are already 2 weeks in! We pray this time goes quickly and he will be healthy and come home with us! Thank you again for all of the continued prayers!

Well, it's 2009! Where has the time gone? We are looking forward to a great year!
Paige, 17 months now, is the joy of our lives! She is so much fun and everyday makes us smile and laugh. She is growing up so much and talking more and more! It's getting colder now, so we have to play inside alot. Her sandbox sits empty for the winter. Soon enough, it will be spring and we will be out and about! We are planning on planting a garden - she will love being in the dirt. It will be a great outdoor activity!
Jason is still traveling back and forth to Phoenix, which is a long drive for him, but he and I are so thankful that he has a good job! He is currently involved in our church's Men's Fraternity and is the director of our AWANA's TREK (junior high) group (as am I). We are also involved in a young families group as well.
I am still staying at home and enjoying the precious time I have with Paige. I also babysit my friend's little boy as well. They are great friends already! :)
We are planning for more children, and are sure it will happen in God's time! We are so thankful for all of His provisions in our lives! HAPPY 2009!
